Canteen/Cafeteria Renovation: Erie VAMC's Canteen/Cafeteria is currently closed for renovations to transform the dated cafeteria into a modern, welcoming eatery. During this nine-month renovation project, the canteen will set up a Grab & Go Cafe at the Starbucks located on the 1st floor. The Starbucks Grab & Go Cafe will be open Mon-Fri from 7am-3pm and will feature a variety of hot and cold menu items for breakfast and lunch. Additional seating will be located in the atrium on the 1st floor. The new Canteen/Cafeteria is expected to open in Fall of 2018.

V-Tel Sleep Study Office MOVED: In February, the V-Tel Sleep Study Room will be relocated to the 2nd floor of the Erie VAMC in room 2n212 located directly across the hall from Conference Room #2 or easier access for patients.

New 1st Floor Foot Traffic Flow: Starting Tuesday, January 16, there will be a pilot program to reroute foot traffic around the Primary Care White Clinic so patients in that clinic can receive a personal & confidential experience as intended. As you will notice, the doors to the White Clinic will be partially closed. Volunteers will be on-site to direct traffic and help you find where you need to go. Simply follow the green line on this image below to help direct you to the right location.

The second phase will add a similar stand-alone building with additional beds over the next several years.
